"We're watching the creeks. They are flowing really heavy and we're seeing some differences in how the creeks are actually flowing," Strongitharm said. "It's impacting areas at the zoo and it's impacting areas near Lincoln Park, and I'm sure other areas around the town."

No homes are affected so far, Strongitharm said. More rain and snow is expected in the Duluth area over the next few days, but the brunt of the storm is expected to hit northwest Wisconsin.
